A new or changing cough, particularly if the sputum contains blood, is a common symptom, along with hoarseness and shortness of breath or increased shortness of breath during exertion. There may also be an increase in the amount of sputum, recurrent episodes of lung infection (sometimes in the same lobe of the lung as the cancer), weight loss and swelling of the face or arms.
If the tumor has spread or metastasized, symptoms can include headaches, double vision, and pain in bones, the chest, abdomen, neck and in the arms.
